they overhyped or what.. well maybe fnatic is too strong
MVP.P was on a hot streak at Shanghai and especially at DotaPit. But "hot streaks" in Dota2 don't last. That difference, though, is generally what it takes to win a LAN. But the "hot streak" is over and they've regressed closer to where they should be: a lower T1 team that's scary if you're not prepared.
Fnatic is currently on their own hot streak, but it helps to beat up on SEA teams.

MVP's made a strong recovery after StarLadder. All those days of going hard on EU ladder paid off it seems.
|
Wow, finals! Seems like all they have to do is not tank super hard next major and TI invite's in the bag
|
Keep up this form and I think winning Manila is a very strong possibility.
|
These guys are hot! Congrats guys, enjoy.
|
I'd say just not bombing to guarantee a TI invite is still the goal - hard to get rid of that underdog kor aura. But I'd love em to do well, and become TI Contenders

It is amazing to see them find success. TI6 Champions baby.
MP back at mid is controlling the tempo and QO carrying fits their roles much better. It is also nice that they have few pocket strats like PL mid to do some mind games. Febby has been playing incredible and Dubu has done a nice job as the drafter. BUT I think the biggest improvement is with Forev getting comfortable with the 3, he has put up some really stable performances on the offlane despite getting in some tricky situations.

They don't look as smooth as they did at Shanghai and threw a huge lead against LGD, but smashing EG wasn't too bad. Next opponent is Liquid which is an incredibly tough opponent given they are the #1 team right now. Maybe they can take one game but I'm not confident this is theirs to win.
|
Mvp got second only cuz they decided to throw and give lgd the win
|
young talented teams like mvp needs to learn discipline before they will be a true top tier team (a good coach would help alot). lgd threw the early game by diving t1 and gave mvp a stupidly big lead but mvp rushed the mid highground and got cocky cuz they already had top down.
|
did they say in maybe an interview or something what the idea with the helm of the dominators was about?
|
This team never lets me down, they're all so good to watch too. Not just one star player, everyone performs so well as a team.

QO, whose stock rose steadily (despite his penchant for flashy plays that have gotten him killed on occasion) since Shanghai after posting mammoth KDAs (easily the best among carries at the event), is usually boisterous when talking about all things Dota 2. But for our interview, he was equal parts smiling yet contemplative about their loss to LGD.
“We’re good at facing the Chinese teams. Everyone keeps saying that they have very good high ground defense but it’s a style that were good at breaking,” shared QO. “They usually like to punish slow pushes and sieges but our push style has never been slow; we love to dive behind the tower and kill defenders. Chinese teams have a lot of stationary and positioning reliant heroes and those are easy targets.”
“If we can beat Liquid, then we can win the entire tournament,” said QO, complete with a cunning smile. “They are really good right now but if we beat them at the Winner’s bracket, we can beat anyone. We do really well with momentum.”

Well at least they win games; )
edit: lol maybe i jinxed my own team with this Post. Never mind, great plays from mvp. They are really impresive right now.

I'll eat my words and prediction bracket. Phenomenal teamplay and teamfight coordination, among the best I've seen. MVP is a team that thrives under pressure. Game 2 against Liquid reminded me of their first game against EG at DotaPit, where they were down three ranged rax but pulled it off with exceptional teamfighting and BoT usage. If they can keep this up, I would not be surprised to see them be in the finals, though OG is a tough opponent.
|
That game 2 performance was unreal. So fucking happy i watched that live.
OG will be tough indeed but thats what they said about Liquid. Cant wait for more MVP magic!
